ERP Experimentation Guide Software

Guide on the social experimentation protocol

This guide is intended at policy makers willing to embark in a social experimentation in the context of the PROGRESS call for proposals. It is divided in three parts. The first part briefly lays out basic principles to follow in order to design a potentially relevant policy intervention. Those principles are illustrated with an example. The second and third parts present six methods commonly us...

Software Implementation and Experimentation with a New Genetic Algorithm for Layout Design

This paper discusses the development of a new GA for layout design. The GA was already designed and reported. However the implementation used in the earlier work was rudimentary and cumbersome, having no suitable Graphical User Interface, GUI. This paper discusses the intricacies of the algorithm and the GA operators used in previous work. It also reports on implementation of a new GA operator ...

Learning About Software Errors Via Systematic Experimentation

Classical planners assume that their internal model is both correct and complete. The dynamic nature of realworld domains (e.g., multi-user software environments) makes these assumptions untenable. Several new planners (e.g.,XII [2]) have been designed to work with incomplete information, and strides have been made in planning with potentially incorrect information. But, efficient operation in ...

The Role of Experimentation in Software Engineering

Research proposals need to be validated either by formal proofs or by applying empirical methods (e.g. controlled experiments). Many authors have pointed out that the level of experimentation in software engineering is not satisfactory. The quantity of experimentation is too low as a lot of software engineering publication do not contain any empirical validation at all. But also the quality of ...
